the level of self-compatibility of the 48 pre-selected apple cultivars, using their own pollen, the genetic capacity of flowering, flower-fruit conversion ratio, multiple fruit fall and bearing preservation during 4 successive biological growth stages were examined through two main treatments of self and cross pollination, in horticulture research station of kamalshahr in karaj (iran). the frui...

Due to its role in the identification of inefficient branches and deciding the consistency of their activities, evaluating the performance of a bankchr('39')s branches is one of the most important decisions in the field of development and regulation of branch network. In this paper, the satisfactory functions based on game theory strategies have been utilized in order to evaluate the individual...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Soil water deficit is a major abiotic stress with severe consequences for the development, productivity and quality of crops. However, it is considered a positive factor in grapevine management (Vitis vinifera), as it has been shown to increase grape quality. The effects of soil water deficit on organogenesis, morphogenesis and gas exchange in the shoot were investigated. ...

In Trifolium repens the decline in bud outgrowth that occurs with distance from basal root systems is due to correlative inhibition by the first-formed basal branches. The apical and axillary buds on these basal branches are the source of the inhibitory effect, but their mode of action is unclear. Inhibition might occur via basal branches being a sink for xylem-transported branching stimulants ...

BACKGROUND Based on our clinical experience, the number of dorsal penile nerves in patients with primary premature ejaculation (PPE) is not consistent with the average number (2 branches). In this study, we evaluated the number and distribution of dorsal penile nerves among healthy Chinese adults and patients with PPE. METHODS The dorsal nerve of the penis, the deep dorsal vein of the penis, ...

supplementary irrigation is a key factor in dryland production of lentil (lens culinaris medik.). in order to study the effects of supplementary irrigation on phenological and morphological characters of three lentil (lens culinaris medik.) cultivars, a trial carried out as split block based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research field of agricultural college, f...

The effect of Reynolds number on curves the transverse-only motion amplitude a circular cylinder with body mass m∗=0.935 and damping ratio ζ=0.00502 in turbulent flow range is investigated systematically using two-dimensional in-house code developed based lattice Boltzmann method. Large eddy simulation chosen as turbulence model to describe viscous, incompressible Newtonian fluid immersed bound...
